Welcome #auroratlap!


We are very excited you have decided to join us on an amazing journey of our exploration through the book "Teach like a Pirate" by Dave Burgess.

PD in you PJs April 9th –May 28th:

It’s not too late to join the first Twitter #auroratlap chat based off of the book by Dave Burgess (yes the guest speaker of our district PD day) “Teach like a Pirate”. This quick read can be found on Amazon for less than 10 bucks for your Kindle or free Kindle App. If at Leighton, submit receipt.

The first online session will take place Wednesday, April 9th @ 8:30 p.m. -9:30 p.m.

What can get better than PD in you PJ’s by embarking on a journey of Passion, Immersion, Rapport, Ask and analyzing, Transformation, and Enthusiasm while sharing your experiences from one of the greatest professions, teaching! The best thing is you will be connecting with other passionate people like you …all in the comfort of your home!

Don’t worry if you can’t make the chat time. The chat will be logged/curated and kept on our Wiki located HERE!
